Hi families! I’m Carolyn Walker — a mom, early childhood therapist, and caregiver who truly loves helping little ones grow. Parenthood has been one of the greatest joys of my life, and I’m so grateful to share it with my wonderful husband and our spirited three-year-old son. Being a mother has only strengthened what I’ve spent the last ten years doing professionally: supporting children’s emotional, social, and behavioral development. As an early childhood therapist specializing in behavioral therapy and autism support, I understand how uniquely and beautifully each child learns and grows. My approach is rooted in patience, empathy, and meeting children exactly where they are. Whether you need reliable babysitting, consistent nanny support, or an extra set of hands during busy moments, I bring my therapeutic background directly into your home by creating: ✨ Safe, nurturing, and consistent routines ✨ Hands-on, age-appropriate activities ✨ Calm, supportive guidance during challenging moments ✨ Environments filled with joy, play, and trust I know how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your child’s world. My goal is to make your little one feel supported, engaged, and genuinely cared for whether I’m hosting them in my home or caring for them in yours. I’m excited to partner with families who want not just a sitter, but someone who understands child development, loves children wholeheartedly, and will cheer your little one on every step of the way.

Carolyn has been an absolute blessing for our family. She arrived prepared with thoughtful toys and engaging books that immediately captured our 18-month-old’s attention. From the very first visit, she created a warm, calm, and playful environment that made our toddler feel comfortable and happy. It’s clear she genuinely enjoys working with young children, and our little one absolutely loves her. We feel completely at ease knowing our child is in such caring and capable hands.

Anna went above and beyond our children. She helped shape our children’s future by talking with them, engaging with them in activities and teaching them along the way. She communicated with them in a way that not only did they understand but retained the vocabulary as well. Other examples include teaching our children how to dress themselves to helping our children with potty training. She was an instrument in my children’s life and will always be a part of our family. I give Anna the highest of reviews.

I am a senior at Notre Dame College in South Euclid, Ohio and my major is Psychology! I would describe myself as outgoing, and others have commented on my “sunny” personality. I have experience babysitting children from ages 11 months to 13 years old. I have helped a working mom by watching her grade school daughter during after school hours. In this situation, I assisted with homework, playing games, watching TV together, and preparing dinner. I babysat this girl for 3 years. I also have watched younger children in the neighborhood, and am adept at keeping them entertained with activities, other than watching TV all summer. In a couple of instances, I have watched children in hotel rooms while their parents attended events while they were visiting from out of town. I have a genuine interest in children and enjoy getting to know them. I have experience volunteering at University Hospitals in the Seidman Cancer Center. In that capacity, I took the hospitality cart around to the patients offering books, magazines, puzzles, beverages, etc. I enjoyed meeting people and talking with them. I also have a reliable car.

I am a registered nanny through an agency located in Beachwood, Ohio and would like the possibility of more jobs. I have been a full time parent to my 2 beautiful daughters who are now ages 32 and 33 and loved every minute of it. They are Irish twins.I can definitely relate to the pleasures and pressures of parenting directly. I believe my friends and former employers would describe me as funny and confident. I try to be very flexible and provide specialized care for each child. I have been an assistant soccer coach in the past for 6 years from preschool to third grade. I have also worked in my church's nursery and enjoyed it very much. I’m proud to have completed my formal training through the former English Nanny & Governess School located in Chagrin Falls, Ohio in 2015.

Hi! I'm Joy and I am an energetic bilingual (Spanish) caregiver with many years of experience across all ages, from infants to teens. I currently work part-time with a kind , loving, & smart 7 year old boy , and an adorable 16 year old non-verbal boy with autism and Down syndrome ( I have worked with his family for 17+ years) I have a B.A. in Spanish and an A.A.S. in Occupational Therapy Assistant Technology . I have previously worked here in Cleveland in the rehab dept. of nursing homes as a COTA, at Trader Joe’s , and as a preschool teacher at Mandel Jewish community center. I grew up in Portland, Oregon and I absolutely love the outdoors, metro parks, animals, music, and arts & crafts....tons of crafts! (I carry around a box of craft materials in my car at all times, and kids know me for this). I also enjoy children's books, the library, board games, and making up silly stories with kids. In addition, I still like to climb trees and play hide and seek, sing, dance, goof around, and be silly when silly is called for. I volunteered as an English teacher for K thru 6th grade students with WorldTeach while living abroad in Costa Rica for two years . I’m adventurous and tons of fun, but I don't forget to enforce rules, teamwork, sharing, respect for other kids, and cleanup . (I trained with Amy Speidel to learn "Conscious Discipline" and continue to get coached by her). If your kids are young, you will often find me on the floor playing and recalling what it was like to be that age.

We are incredibly grateful we found Joy! She is kind, reliable, and has a natural ability to connect with our 9 month old. From reading books, to singing songs she is always willing to go the extra mile to engage with our little one. We can always count on her, which gives us peace of mind. Highly recommend!

I became a caregiver because it is what I have done most of my life. Taking care of children has been the most rewarding career for me. Being a mother of four grown children and twelve grandchildren qualifies me as a nurturing caregiver. For many years I worked in the hospitality & retail industry. As a nanny I have cared for children newborn to teenagers. I’ve cared for families with one to three children. I’ve previously been CPR certified. My flu shot is updated yearly. I have received all my Covid shots. My Internest updates my shots every 6 months,
